            Bug ID: 56628
           Summary: Non-mobile UAs on mobile (2g/gprs, etc) IP-blocks
           Product: Analytics
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All

    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---

If possible, it would be good to know the number of users who are using a
2G/GPRS connection as their primary network connection.

One way would be to find non-mobile User-Agents being used on netblocks
reserved for Mobile traffic.

This sort of use is more common in less developed areas that have cell
coverage, but few to no cables laid to the home.

From an email to Erik Zachte (after which he suggested this bug):

  We would look at *only* non-cellular UAs and find out how many of those
  were on clearly celluar subnets like Orange TUNISIE (www.orange.tn)
  which owns '41.224.64.0 - 41.224.127.255'.

  This would mean matching UAs to IPs.

  Alternatively, it would be useful if we could find out how much
  bandwidth a user has, but I'm not sure how to do that without being
  really invasive.
